Hi Group,

if anyone of you is flying behind a Limbach engine, please note that this Konigswinter/Germany based company is closing down its operation by the end of October.
After JPX (France) www.jpx.fr/Jpx/ shut down VW-aero engine production in 2007 and now Limbach is doing the same, this leaves Sauer ( www.sauer-flugmotorenbau.de/ also based in Germany) as the only certified VW aero engine provider.

Rumor has it that Revmaster are certifying their R2300 so there should be another option soon.

Hi Group,

just a short notice that Limbach is continuing it's operation after all. A German/Chinese businessman (who lives in that area) has taken over the company effective Jan. 1st. Last week they did an inventory, from this week on they are set to resume normal business.

cheers
